Man I cut some savory pine whips today! It was a blast! Some of them just cry out to be swung...and I always try and oblige them if at all possible. If I could just figure a notch that would add some more speed off the stump....those light tops ain't got enough punch.

Fancier isn't always better.
Best to just lay em down and move on. We need you Tommorow too.

That spot on bro ........as not always do the fancy cuts come off ........when ya go from basics then ya getting into the realms of theory, feel and ......hope.


I ain't sating don't use them just don't place everything on em
 
yea, thig is forresters here call almost any pine a lob. truth is it really to broad a term since all pine don't act the same. we have at least 5 diff. subs

Hey sticks in the same species don't always act the same ........Knowing what they prone to do is good but each stick should be treated individually
 
Just got done washing the soot off the 325. Cleaned up muh saws and checked over the 372 and said screw it and took a screw driver to the carb made a diff.
 
Ifin I had insurance on the 325 I would have let it go up in smoke.. and I would have pushed it over next to my truck and let it go up too lol:hmm3grin2orange:
 
roberte- yeh, I know what your saying...just drop 'em and go... but if I can pull them into the lay it all the mo betta.

busted- ya don't think it's just in the face? I tried everything I could think of today just seeing what all could help gain the most momentum. The tops are light.

I have often wondered that myself... them pine and spruce sticks seem to like to just stand there.

TC yeah the face has gotta do with it but so has hinge (thickness of it, placement of it) the height of back cut, the terrain ya on not to mention the species and even the subtleties of each stick.


I know ya wanna lay just don't get to creative lol
